We will take care of this irrationality: Sibal

The high cut-off marks, including 100 per cent in one of Delhi's famous colleges, for admission this year has triggered a controversy with Union HRD Minister Kapil Sibal on Wednesday.

He came out strongly against it and assured parents that the government would intervene in the matter.

"I was sad to hear it. I want to reach out to parents and students and tell them don't worry...We will take care of this irrationality. We are on your side," said Sibal, as the cut-off has sent a collective sense of disbelief among the student community.

"I am informed by the (Delhi University) Vice-Chancellor that there is only one student in the entire list who has got a 100 per cent in science.

He may never go to commerce. The idea is to exclude everybody in the science stream and not to allow them an opportunity. This is completely irrational," he added.
